Park-and-Ride system for Port-of-Spain from next week

Port-of-Spain: The long talked about Park and Ride system will be launched in Port-of-Spain next week.

Port-of-Spain Mayor Louis Lee Sing says this  will encourage drivers to park at the Hasely Crawford Stadium or the Queens Park Savannah and utilize an inter-city bus service.

The initiative according to the mayor is to help  ease traffic congestion during the busy Christmas season and offer a temporary solution to parking.

In addition several streets will be pedestrianised for Christmas once the final approvals are received from the Ministry of Works and Infrastructure.
